%T Taking representation seriously: expertise, participation and the government of risks %A Pârvu, Camil-Alexandru %J Studia Politica: Romanian Political Science Review %N 2 %P 233-244 %V 8 %D 2008 %@ 1582-4551 %> https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0168-ssoar-55937-6 %X This short article aims to question some of the arguments advanced in recent democratic theory that use a certain understanding of the science-politics relation in order to advocate for participatory procedures at the expense of political representation. It critically examines the conceptual and normative assumptions of a certain framing of the legitimacy problem that is based on Science and Technology Studies (STS) findings, and offers an argument for a renewed interest in the complex yet rich normative potential of political representation. %C MISC %G en %9 Zeitschriftenartikel %W GESIS - http://www.gesis.org %~ SSOAR - http://www.ssoar.info
